Why We Love It
What makes Organic Diaper Balm a Label Lookout pick
This balm skips the usual diaper cream base of zinc oxide and petroleum and builds around olive oil, shea butter, and beeswax instead, with calendula, chickweed, plantain, and St. John's wort added for their traditional use in herbal salves. Every ingredient is named on the label at the material level, which is rare in a category where fragrance often hides a mix nobody discloses.

Pros & cons
What we love
- Ten ingredients, all organic and named on the label
- No zinc oxide, petroleum, parabens, or synthetic fragrance
- Cloth diaper safe, unlike zinc based barrier creams
- Dermatologist and pediatrician tested for irritation
!Worth noting
- Contains lavender and tea tree essential oils, and some pediatricians advise caution with essential oils on very young or sensitive skin
